Put this "bitcoin.conf" file (with notepad) in the blockchain folder :

Code:

disablewallet=0
server=0
maxconnections=2

on old bitcoin core ... less connexion is better.

but ... before that, check if CPU and HARD DRIVE activity is zero.
because, on average PC, bitcoin core is SLOW BECAUSE of the hardware and not because of the connexion.

Normal sync. on Bitcoin core 0.9.x is 4 days in my PC and 2 days on the 0.10.0

I have questions.

#1 why would they want to disable their wallet?
#2 why put it in server mode?
#3 why limit to 2 connections instead of enforcing a single good connection to a fast node with -connect=IP?

-snip-
I already upgraded to v. 0.10.0 : does that conf file you decribed work on 0.10 version as well?

PS: my sync process is not slow ...it doesn't sync at all even if it shows 8 active connections to the network but says "no block source available".

Once you started bitcoin core/qt do the peers you see in the debug window know more blocks than you? Are they running 0.10. or older versions?

Use the command line -reindex on the shortcut of bitcoin core (and then, after the first lauch, delete the command line).

https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Running_Bitcoin#Command-line_arguments

Bitcoin core will be examinate the blockchain construction ... and resume the download.
At the worst, it re-download all the blockchain.

My old 0.9.3 version was stuck at block 345005 (6 das ago now) and it didn't sync anymore.

So upgraded to 0.10, hoping to solve the issue, but problem persist.

It's stuck at 345005, 8 active connections to bicoin network and at the left of sync bar it says "no block source available"

Anyone have a clue of what's the problem here and what may I try to solve it?

Thx in advance

ps: sorry if posted in wrong place

I'm currently running version 0.9.3: should I unistall it or may I simply run 0.10 installer over old version?
If possible do you think its better unistalling first or not? and for which reasons?

Thx in advance for your help and sorry for asking noob questions

You can install 0.10 over the old version, just make sure it's not running.

hi there , for some reasons when I click "More details" on a transaction , I get all the needed informations (Amount , TX ID and those stuff about the transaction) but where there is "From : " It's written Unkown ? why I can't see from where the BTC was sent while I can see it fine on the Blockchain ?

Yeah, sometimes it seems like the bitcoin-core developers are focussed on developing bitcoin-core.

Do you not understand that having a functional client is absolutely essential, and that without it the network just doesn't work? We can't all use SPV clients - what would they connect to?

I think where you're going wrong is in thinking that "we" have or are looking for "investors".

Anyway, if there is no demand for bitcoin why is it trading at over $200 per unit?

I think where you are going wrong is thinking the development team of a coin is responsible solely on the core and the wallet, there is more to a coin than just that!

Do you understand the meaning if it aint broke dont fix it, if you have to fix it make sure it works!! ? You had 100 people working on an update and you still have some transaction times between 30 to 120 minutes, (with or without a fee added)so what have they really done? I noticed no change on my end as a user, as a coder I see a lot, but at the end of the rope, users care none about the programming they care about how fast their transactions get processed, if they have to wait 2 hours adaptation and adoption becomes a hard goal to achieve!!!

Bitcoin needed investors from day one without them bitcoin would be NOWHERE, investors bought the coins and helped to jump start the block chain, they bought mining hardware and helped secure the chain, without them "you" would have nothing, no transactions to process, no blockchain, and you sill need them, more now than before actually with a difficulty of over 40 billion. So, dont kick the gift horse in the mouth now because you feel you milked that tit dry and dont need it anymore. Because, in todays crytpo industry, attitude like that will bury your precious bitcoin and it will be replaced by a coin with a development team who cares about all the aspects of developing a coin, especially the people who pay the bills (investors)

I can see you are completely uneducated on trading and how it works, let me help you. The only thing bitcoin has is its tradable value, thats why it trades at over 200 bucks a coin ( the investors is why) in all actuality there is no demand for it at all.

Example: When china needs a product from japan they have a demand for the Japanese Yen, thus they buy it, then the value increases.

With bitcoin there is nothing that makes people have a need or a want to buy it "EXCEPT" the fact they can buy a few and sell a few and maybe make a profit doing it. (ITS TRADABLE MARKET) this si not a demand this is a hobby. A demand would be providing a service or a product you can only buy with bitcoins, something we need but you can not buy with cash.

Code:

2015-02-27 14:55:26 Error: Couldn't open socket for incoming connections (socket returned error An address incompatible with the requested protocol was used.  (10047))

Do you see this line in older logs as well? It looks like a firewall is interfering with the listening port. I don't know whether this could possibly cause a crash, but you might want to check this.

Yes, I did see that error in the original log. I've since performed a clean reinstall and am re-syncing from scratch. Wallet was backed up, so shouldn't be a problem, I just wonder what happened in the first place.

When I look at the peers list in bitcoin-qt, I'm seeing very few 0.10 nodes - looks like adoption of the new bitcoin core is pretty slow, or is that normal?

Onkel Paul

Bitnodes sees about 25% v0.10.0.

I've been running Bitcoin Core 0.10.0 stable for several days, but this morning I woke up to an error window telling me to see debug.log. I've had errors before, and always just restart the program and no problem. Well this time I restarted it and the loading screen comes up and it went through the block verification so fast as if there was no blockchain on my computer, then the program crashed. I repeated the step and same thing, no error window either time. I reinstalled 0.10.0, reset the options, pointed it to my data directory, but it still crashes at the loading window with no error message. Here is a debug log from an attempted start of the program:
